Who says you can’t enjoy the mouthwatering flavors of a Chinese Spring Onion Pancake in just 10 minutes?
In this recipe, we’ll embrace a little kitchen shortcut, because when it comes to indulging in something this delicious, who cares about cheating?
When we talk about Chinese food, there’s one dish that always makes the taste buds happy – the savory spring onion pancake.
These pancakes are incredibly delicious with a savory and flaky texture, making them a perfect choice for breakfast or a tasty snack in between meals.
But here’s the thing: making them the traditional way, by folding and rolling the dough, can be a lot of work and take up a lot of time.
I’ve discovered a fantastic shortcut that lets me enjoy these pancakes more often without all the effort.
In this blog post, I’m excited to share my secret recipe for making buttery and flavorful spring onion pancakes using frozen puff pastry sheets.
Yes, you heard it right – you can whip up this delightful treat in just 10 minutes!
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- Frozen puff pastry sheets
- Fresh scallions (green onions)
- Sesame seeds
- Oil for frying
Instructions for Making Quick Savory Pancakes:
1. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
- On a lightly floured surface, cut the puff pastry into your desired shape, and use a rolling pin to gently roll it out, making it slightly thinner.
2. Add the Spring Onions:
- Sprinkle the chopped spring onions evenly over the pastry.
- Fold the pastry over to encase the spring onions and then roll it out again. Don’t worry if some little air pockets burst; it’s part of the process.
3. Pan-Fry the Pancakes:
- Heat some oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Pan-fry the pastry on both sides until it becomes golden and crispy.
4. Optional Sesame Seed Topping:
- If you like, you can add a delightful touch by sprinkling roasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
